How do I tell my family about the layoff? - 12 months and counting

    I have been leaving the house at the same time each day so my kids do not notice. It has been weighing on me all week. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. How did you handle it?

    Shame is common after a layoff even when it is not your fault. Saying it out loud to one person first helped me.
